Pork Tenderloin and Broccoli With Asian Sauce image

Serve this with rice or cooked noodles. Plan ahead the pork needs to marinate for a minimum of 3 hours or you can marinate overnight. Of coarse you can use just about any veggie you like but broccoli is the best, green beans are good also! An absolute amazing pork dish, and worth the time to make. You can use two pork tenderloins if you wish.
